Chapter 158: A Date With My Boyfriend

His eyes narrowed as he watched Su Ruan walk to a quiet spot to pick up the phone call.

It was said that Yu Zhi Yi and Su Ruan are best friends. However, each time that he had seen Yu Zhi Yi, Long Fei could sense that the way he was looking at Su Ruan was a little strange.

Moreover, each time that Su Ruan met this friend, she would become unhappy. Long Fei could not help but wonder what was going on between them.

…

Su Ruan walked over under the shady tree and swiped her finger on the screen.

In a beat, Yu Zhi Yi's voice could be heard from the other line. "Su Ruan?"

"Un. It's me." Su Ruan lowered her head and wrapped a hand around her waist.

"Are you done with your meeting?"

"Mmm… It ended a while ago."

"Then, should we meet up? I'll come over to your hotel and we can hang out at the hotel's lounge. How does that sound?"

"No. I can't. Maybe not today."

Yu Zhi Yi chuckled. "What are you busy with this time? Su Ruan, it has been a while since we catch up with each other. I have a lot of things to tell you."

Su Ruan pursed her lips into a thin line. Her heart was feeling uncomfortable as she thought of her meeting with Shen Yue earlier today. She knew well that she have to distance herself from Yu Zhi Yi. Otherwise, his fiance might continue to misunderstand their relationship.

She had decided that she will forget the feelings she had for Yu Zhi Yi and moved on.

Besides…

Su Ruan raised her head and peeked at Long Fei who was waiting for the cook to prepare their order.

She was now in a relationship with Long Fei. They haven't gotten together for a long time and were still in the process of getting to know each other. However, she could see that he had treated her really well.

Just now, she was in a bad mood after hearing Shen Yue's words.

Long Fei had suddenly shown up by her side and asked her if she was alright. He saw that she was unhappy and wanted to cheer her up.

She could not deny that this man was stirring something in her heart.

Su Ruan lowered her head and smiled. "I'm on a date with my boyfriend."

"Oh." Yu Zhi Yi could not hide his disappointment. His heart was uncomfortable as he heard that she was on a date. He could detect her smile judging from her light and happy tone.

However, Yu Zhi Yi quickly suppressed that unhappy feeling. He told himself again and again that the reason he was this uncomfortable was that he was afraid of losing Su Ruan as a friend. Now that she was in a relationship, she won't have time to talk to him.

"It's fine then." Yu Zhi Yi forced a smile. "But you will still come to see me tomorrow right? There are a few things that I'm going to need your help with."

"Un. I know. I promised you that I'm going to help you. I'll show up tomorrow."

A breath of relief escaped him now that he heard her words. He was actually worried that Su Ruan was going to make an excuse to avoid him again.

"Then, I'll see you tomorrow." Yu Zhi Yi's tone sounded cheery this time. "Should I go over and pick you up?"

The two of them chatted for a bit before they hang up. When Su Ruan looked up again, Long Fei was walking over in her direction while carrying two servings of stuffed pancakes, and a tray of drinks.

Seeing that he had his hands full, Su Ruan went to his side and grabbed the tray of drinks from his hand.

"Why did you buy so many?"

Long Fei smiled. He pointed towards a bench not too far away from them and spoke, "Let's go and sit down while we eat."

Su Ruan did not have an objection. The two of them sat down and Long Fei passed her a pancake.

Her eyes lit up as the delicious smell of the food wafted to her nose. A soft sigh escaped her as she took a bite. The taste of the pancake was really good and the filling was generous.

Long Fei took his chance to observe the girl as she eat.

Just now, he could detect that she was unhappy but still put on a cheery look on her face. He did not know what did Su Ruan and her friend had talked about, but it worry him that the conversation made her unhappy.

Fortunately, after taking a bite at her food, Long Fei could feel the unhappy feeling slowly disintegrate.

His gaze fell on the food in his hand. Long Fei began to wonder if the taste of the pancake was really good and if it could lift up her mood.

"Why aren't you eating?" Su Ruan noticed that Long Fei has been watching her for a while. With his intense gaze, it was difficult for her to continue eating.

"Is the pancake delicious?"

Su Ruan nodded. "It's really good." She took another bite at her pancake to show him that she really enjoyed the taste.

The corner of his lips turned up. Long Fei stretched out his hand and touched the corner of her lips.

"There's some sauce over here," Long Fei explained when he saw the girl staring back at him with her eyes wide.

Her gaze shifted to the tip of his finger where there was indeed some stain of sauces. Then, she watched as he licked the sauce from his finger.

Something exploded in Su Ruan's mind. Her heartbeat accelerated. It felt as if there was a group of deer running stampede in her heart.

This… Did he just lick the sauce that he wiped off from the corner of her lips?

Su Ruan was screaming internally.

"What's wrong?" Long Fei watched her in puzzlement. He noticed her reddened ears and neck and finally understood that Su Ruan was shy again.

"Nothing." Su Ruan lowered her head to avoid his gaze.. "You should eat quickly before the food gets cold."
